One Voice for America’s Foreign Relations

In a move to streamline and centralize U.S. foreign policy, the President has issued an order emphasizing that all foreign relations activities must align with presidential directives, with the Secretary of State ensuring compliance. This order underlines that failure to adhere to these guidelines could lead to disciplinary actions, including dismissal, and mandates reforms in the Foreign Service to support the President's agenda. While this aims to create a unified foreign policy voice, it may raise legal and political debates about executive overreach and the balance of power within the government.
